5.) Paris syndrome

Expectations high, reality strikes,

Cultural dissonance triggers spikes.


Autonomic nerves respond with fear,

Mind-body stress when worlds don’t appear.


Expectations fall from height,


Dreams of Paris, shining bright.

Clash with streets that dim the light,


Neurons flare and the heart takes flight.


Poet: Vynolyn Naidoo
